I saw that thanks,, this is the first forum I have used that didn't have a quote icon. If you're talking about the "reply with quote" that a lot of forums have that grabs an entire post and puts in in your post, I deliberately removed it. You also won't see ridiculously long posts here because of a quote inside a quote inside a quote inside a quote because I've forced people to only pick the relevant text instead of taking the lazy easy way out.  As BigFredd said use the reply and not the quick reply the  button will pop in the tags. |

I guarantee that the note was not sanded down. The counterfeiter obviously wanted a note with a watermark and the plastic security filament. If you were to try to just sand down a note, there is no reason to use a $5- you would just use a $1. I am not convinced that sanding would ever work though. Many people do not carefully examine the watermark(note specific President although it can be difficult to distinguish which one at a glance) or the filament(the filament has microprinting with the denomination although magnification is needed) and so as long as "something" is there, it is good enough.
It was sanded down. The paper was rough on both sides. |

chemical bleaching can roughen the paper as well
